TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that I, LUCIEN DE GOLIA, of Betchellerville, in Saratoga county, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved Wash-Board; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilledin the art to make'and use the same, reference being had to the accompnnying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents a front View of my improved wash-board.

Figure isa. central section of-the same, the plane of section bengindcated by the line x x, lig. 1;

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

This invention relates to a new wash-board, which is provided with two corrugated surfaces. the one eing formed in wood, the other in zinc.

The object of the invention is to make one hoard answer all requirements-all kinds off-garments to be washed and all notions about the best kind of wash-boards-so that if there are two kinds of persons iri a house differing in opinion as to whether the metal or wooden wash-board is the best` my invention will satisfy both.

A represents the frame in which the wooden wash-board B, corrugated on one side and smoother corru gated on the other side, is held.' The upper end -05 this board is smooth on both sides, and is on'each side provided with a. recess, a, for the holding `of soap. Over the smooth face of the board B, or over that face of..

the suine which is.not to be used for washing, is laid a. corrugited zinc or other metal plate, C, which is held to the frame A in any suitable manner. Thus a wash-board vhaving a wooden and a metallic corrugated surface.

is arranged so that either side may' be used whenever desired. 4

I claim as new, and desire lto secure by Letters Patent as a. new article of manufacture- A wash-board provided with a wooden and with a metallic corrugated surface, substantially as and for the Y purpose herein shown and described.
